Description Andre Robatino 2012-06-29 00:26:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
If several versions of a package, such as kernel or kernel-devel, are installed, and I need to reinstall one of them, it's prevented unless it's the newest version. It complains that a newer version is already installed. This would make sense if it was a package that could only have one version installed. Same problem if I need to install an older version.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.4.3-29.fc18.noarch

How reproducible:
always
